If you love Champagne, then you will love Franciacorta. You know that biscuity toasty note in Champagne that you don't find in cheaper bubbles? Those flavors come from the wine aging on its lees after fermentation, and the longer time the wine ages, the more of those rich notes the wine takes on. Believe it or not, the aging requirements for Franciacorta are actually longer than the requirements in Champagne (18 months vs 12 months)! These wines have all that complexity you love in Champagne at a much lower price point, and this Vigna Dorata Franciacorta is the perfect example of just how good Italian sparkling wine can be!
